I usually shop for groceries at Whole Foods but I swear, it is so obvious that every recipe for their prepared foods was written by a white person. They will throw in every fancy ingredient they’ve got except spices. Salt belongs in guacamole! At the very least! 🥺

Can someone explain this logo to me please??

Just got home from day 2 at the Atlanta Pride festival. My body is exhausted but my spirit is so full right now.

I wish Pride were a place you could go whenever you wanted or needed to be reminded how loved you are and how much love surrounds you in community, not just a day or two out of the year.

. . . While the taste is comparable to those I know and love from Mexico, and you do get a lot more bang for your buck, these gargantuan Florida mangoes in my grocery store made me sad. I know why they’re there now and what they represent. And I still prefer the Mexican mangoes. 🥭 🍉

I looove mango with Tajin. I just finished one; first one I’ve ever had from Florida. When I was at checkout when I bought it I commented on how large it was. This thing was HUGE. The cashier told me they started getting mangoes from Florida and they’re a lot bigger. . .

Okay I was a huuuuge supporter until you said this. Every senator and representative is rich. Period. Please stop playing into this rhetoric of Red vs. Blue when it’s really poor and working class vs. the rich. Democrats have been in line with the Republicans since at least Reagan if not further

I figured since I seem to be irreparably attracted to avoidant people, I’d better start learning more about them. And boy ohhh boy hath mine eyes been opened. I didn’t expect to be feeling grief either, but here we are. But now I know how to be better, and for that I am very grateful. . .

Because the people with the power and authority to do so are wealthy, just like him. They would never put that wealth at risk; they’re playing on the same team.

As a fellow autistic person who is also a dancer, try spotting. Spotting is a dance term used when we do turns that just means you pick one spot to focus on when turning/spinning. Keep your eyes focused on that spot and turn your head to keep focus and *voila* you don’t get as dizzy!

France is also wayyyyyyy different than the US in size, population, culture, history, and governance
